I originally had my makeup done by Daniel for the first time over two years ago for my maternity…read morephotos then a few months later for my sister in laws wedding. Long story short I had paid Daniel a deposit to have my makeup done for my wedding September 26, 2020 that I had to cancel due to covid. I let him know that I wasn't planning on rescheduling my wedding at the moment but asked if he could do my makeup for a family photoshoot instead. With less than two weeks notice daniel made himself available with no questions asked and fully honored my deposit that most artists would have not honored, not refunded, or charged as a cancelation fee. His kindness, hospitality, skill, and art always exceeds my expectations. I rarely get my makeup done but when I do it's with Daniel, period. Can't wait to see how our family photos turned out.

I just didn't want to deal with trying to shave because once you get a big , pregnant belly, it's nearly impossible. IYKYK. It was my first time ever getting waxed , and a Brazilian nonetheless. I know your body and skin is super sensitive in pregnancy so I was so super worried about the pain of the wax. But Marri was so kind , welcoming, reassuring, fun, easy to talk to. I felt like I've known her for years!!! I don't think many people can say they look forward to getting waxed, but I always do because Marri is such a gem of a human. I'm so grateful to know her. Yes, it does hurt, but she's lightening fast. And she will talk to you about any and everything to keep your mind occupied, it's like a built in therapy session too!!! (Or she also does "quiet sessions" too if you prefer not to talk!!!). I truly wouldn't want to go to anyone else and I always recommend her to everyone I know !!!!

I don't leave reviews lightly, which is why I reached out to the owner privately before posting…read morethis. I wanted to give the salon an opportunity to address my concerns directly. When I booked my mom's blowout, I specifically explained that she has soft, textured hair and was reassured that Yolanda Lusnia was experienced with all hair types. Based on that conversation, we felt confident moving forward with the appointment. Unfortunately, the experience did not meet those expectations. When we first walked into Rock Paper Scissors, the initial expressions and reaction from Yolanda Lusnia and Bree Pickens immediately made my mom and me feel uncomfortable and unwelcome. We arrived excited and trusting that my mom would be taken care of, but the first impression left us feeling out of place. During the appointment, I noticed a lack of warmth, communication, and attention to detail that you would expect from a professional salon experience. At the shampoo bowl, Yolanda did not adjust my mom's chair, speak with her, or ask basic comfort questions such as whether the water temperature was comfortable or if she preferred it warmer or cooler. Those small gestures are part of making a client feel cared for, and their absence was noticeable. About 10 minutes into the appointment, Bree did come over and kindly asked if I wanted to sit in the same room as my mom. I appreciated that gesture. However, when Bree walked me back, Yolanda said she was going to ask me the same thing. After the initial interaction, the change in tone felt uncomfortable and confusing. While my mom was at the shampoo bowl, I overheard that there was no way her hair could be blown out without straightening it. I clarified that we had booked a blowout, not a straightening service. After the service was completed, her hair was still very frizzy and did not look like a finished blowout. When I politely expressed my concerns about the result, Yolanda raised her voice and said, "I'm not used to doing this type of hair." That comment was extremely disappointing and made my mom feel singled out because of her natural hair texture. My mom has had successful blowouts at other salons, and the issue was not only the final result. It was the overall experience and the way she felt as a client. I reached out to Katie Enfield privately because I wanted to resolve this respectfully before posting publicly. While I appreciated receiving a response, I did not feel my concerns were fully acknowledged. Every client deserves to feel welcomed, respected, and cared for when they walk into a salon.
